# Introducing Sidekick app extensions

Today, we're introducing [Sidekick app extensions](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/sidekick) to give your app new ways to integrate your app with [Sidekick](https://www.shopify.com/magic), Shopify's AI-enabled commerce assistant.

### What are Sidekick app extensions?

Your app can connect its data and workflows using app extensions. Sidekick can search your app’s data, answer questions with your app’s context, and take merchants straight to the right page in your app.

You can also let Sidekick assist directly inside your app. Define safe, scoped actions—like editing an email template, creating a product review, or updating a support issue—and Sidekick will suggest changes and bring up the right UI, but merchants stay in control of what gets updated.

### Learn more

Jump in and take a tour through our [documentation on Sidekick app extensions](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/sidekick) to learn how you can integrate these new super-powers into your app!
